Jolography (A Reflection)

           Baclaran, "Please pass. Kindly ride on."

Although I don't completely understand the wording used in this stanza, I

believe the notion refers to using a jeepney instead of a car to get about Baclaran.

 The most typical Filipino habit in public transit is to pass over the fare. Manalo

 aimed to draw attention to the characteristics that Filipinos share while requesting

 favors in slang.

I learned a variety of things about Filipino nature as a result. First, I learned that

 Filipinos could still manage to be polite and courteous even in a hectic situation,

such as while passing fares on public transit. Second, I came to the conclusion

that we frequently employ "Kanto" language to convey our regional identities and

 verbal originality.

Our words are, in fact, our own.
